      because social policies are driving up prices. the people are voting for this.

      go to any town/neighborhood meeting and everyone will be against new housing, new taxes, and any development at all. it’s all creating scarcity. USA is severely underdeveloped.

      hence why prices go up.

      Because both parties work for them. We need to change that, and make them fear us more than the Sociopathic Oligarchs.

      Right now, they fear the Sociopathic Oligarchs’ money. We need to make them fear our violence even more than that, then we can force them to confiscate those fortunes, and fund a government that works for the people, not the wealthy.

        Jesus christ, you’re so fucking stupid. How do you STILL not understand that this is EXACTLY what they want people to think?

        Yeah, Trump is the “same” as Biden was. If you believe that, you’re a massive fucking dumbass.

          I did not say that both sides are equal, I said they both work for the same people, and I defy you to tell me I’m wrong.

          They can both work for the same boss, and still be very different in their approach. One side wants to seduce us into accepting our fates as struggling debt-laden wage slaves, while the other side wants to use their power to cruelly abuse their fellow citizens for their own amusement, and cover for their mind-boggling corruption.

          It’s not a difficult concept to understand, nearly everybody has experienced it at a workplace. You all work for the same company, but some managers are cool, even as they expect you to live your entire life for your employer, while the other one just wants to terrorize everybody for every moment they are at work. If that’s our only choices, we all know which system we’d rather work, or live under.

          If America were a workplace, eventually we would realize that the best solution for getting rid of both predatory systems would be to UNIONIZE, and FORCE them to obey US, because the consequences would be far, far worse than anything a mere billionaire could do.
